Took NCEX-RN Today! Shut off at 75

Published

I just took my NCLEX-RN exam today. Oh my goodness. That exam was crazy! The computer stopped at 75 questions and it took me almost 2 hours. I got 11 SATA, 1 exhibit/chart, 1 ordered response, 3 calculations which I know I answered correctly, and a lot of teaching, infection control, delegation, assignments, prioritization, like 7-10 meds teaching. There were some easy questions mixed in once in a while so that kinda freaked me out, but towards the end it was all other types of questions. It was like no other. The questions were not difficult but the answers were! Talk about critical thinking. I was NOT confident in the majority of the answers. I understand that this is quite normal. I don't know what to think right now. I guess I'm just going to have to wait. I really hope that I pass! I'm in CA. Hopefully, I'll find out soon.

hey mslema!

crossing my fingers for you!!!

im from california too! what area are you from?

im from cypress, ca .....good ol' orange county!

thank you! i'm from east bay area but went to school in sacramento and am currently living in the sacramento region. is it difficult finding a new grad position down south? i was considering moving there just to try something new. i know the pay is less there, but that doesn't matter. well, as long as cost of living isn't as high as over here.

UPDDATE: I checked the CA BRN website at 0630 this morning and found out that I passed!! :) Yay, I am an RN! So, it took them 3 days to post, but the date my license was issued was the 17th (yestreday's date), just 2 days after my test date. I guess CA updates for the previous day. That's pretty quick! I'm so happy! :wink2:
